An effective emergency response relies on good planning and preparation
Ensure your organisation has plans in place for all incident types
We can help you establish practical, usable emergency plans and procedures to make sure your organisation is prepared, whatever happens. This includes guiding you through existing and proposed new legislation such as Martyn’s Law.
Whatever the nature of your organisation and whatever your requirements, we have the expertise and experience to develop, implement and embed a professional and efficient emergency plan.
Key to a plans effectiveness is its usability. We develop the plans and procedures with the “end user” in mind. We can support you to adapt/adjust your existing plans to provide toolkits for your responders, through the use of checklists, flow charts, infographics and visuals.
We also offer professional support, whether you need an extra pair of hands, professional advice or an independent debrief of your team’s response to a recent incident. Our Resilience team has a broad range of skills and experience across the whole emergency planning cycle.

HOW IT WORKS
Emergency Response Plans with RAB
Initial Assessment and Needs Analysis
In the initial phase, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of your organisation, identifying your specific vulnerabilities and critical operational areas. We collaborate with your key stakeholders to understand your unique concerns and regulatory requirements. This step also involves pinpointing potential emergency scenarios tailored to your industry and location.
Customised Emergency Plan Development
Based on the assessment findings, our experts craft a bespoke emergency plan. This plan encompasses a range of components, including flood response, local authority coordination, incident response protocols, reservoir emergencies, site evacuations, and compliance with major accident hazard regulations. Importantly, we ensure the plan aligns seamlessly with your organisational structure and culture.
Training and Exercises
We take proactive steps to ensure your team is well-prepared to implement the emergency plan effectively. We provide comprehensive training and conduct simulation exercises and drills. This practical training helps validate the plan’s effectiveness and familiarises your staff with their roles during emergencies. Regular plan reviews and updates are part of this ongoing step.
Plan Implementation and Integration
With the emergency plan in place, we assist you in integrating it into your day-to-day operations. This includes defining clear roles and responsibilities for your employees, establishing communication protocols with relevant authorities, and ensuring necessary resources are readily available. The focus is on seamless implementation, making the plan an integral part of your organisation.
Ongoing Support and Maintenance
If required, we can offer continuous support and consultation, maintaining a proactive stance in keeping the plan up-to-date. We monitor changes in regulations and industry best practices, promptly updating the plan as needed. Periodic reviews and audits are conducted to identify improvement areas, ensuring the plan remains effective in addressing evolving risks.
